• Front Hitch Recommendation for a 2001 Ford F350
  Both the Draw Tite Hitch part # 65022 and the Curt Front Hitch part # 31114 are confirmed to fit your 2001 Ford F350, both will install the same and will have the same capacities. The Draw Tite has more reviews and they were all positive, so based on that and the fact that it costs a little less that's the route I would go. I attached an install video for you to check out.

• Front Hitch Installation For 2002 Ford Excursion Diesel With Blocker Beam
  The front hitch designed for your 2002 Ford Excursion is the Curt Hitch, part # 31114. This is a custom fit hitch and has a 2 inch receiver opening. I called my contact at Curt and they told me they were not aware of a blocker beam being installed on an Excursion. They did tell me that the front mount hitch # 31114 would bolt to the brackets for the springs and the blocker beam would attach to the underside of the front mount hitch. They told me it would bolt into place like the 31014...

• 2000 Ford F-250 Super Duty Front Hitch Receiver Recommendation
  Aside from brand name the Curt Front Hitch # 31114 and Draw-Tite Front Hitch # 65022 are virtually the same for your 2000 Ford F-250 Super Duty - usually in this case it boils down to brand-loyalty for the end-user. If you don't have a preference then I recommend going with the Curt. The powder coat on Curt hitches tends to be a little thicker which gives it a slight edge in protection against the elements. You can choose to reuse the factory license plate holder when you aren't utilizing...

• Does Blocker Beam of 2006 Ford F-350 Dictate Which Front Hitch Fits
  This is correct. If you have the Blocker Beam on your 2006 Ford F-350 you will need to use the Draw Tite hitch # 65022 or if not you'd need the # 31114. The blocker beam is a small sub-bumper behind air dam.

• Front Mount Hitch Fit for a 2005 Ford F-350 Super Duty
  The front mount trailer hitch I recommend for your 2005 Ford F-350 is the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 31114 because it is made in the USA and currently our most cost effective option for a front mount hitch. I called Curt and they were not sure of where you were measuring to get a 37" frame but if you measure the distance between the two innermost mounting points (see photo) on the front end plate of your frame rail, you should get 31" and if you do the above will work...

• Will Curt Front-Mount Hitch 31114 Fit 2003 Ford 550 Four Wheel Drive
  Curt front-mount trailer hitch # 31114 will fit the 2003 Ford F-550 cab-and-chassis but it will NOT fit the F-550 Super-Duty pickup. No front hitches are offered for the F-550 pickup. Curt hitch # 31114 does require some drilling for installation and it will also require you to remove/relocate the OEM fog lights. We also offer a similar front hitch from Draw-Tite, part # 65022, whose installation is shown in the linked video.

• Why is Curt Front HItch 31114 Difficult to Install on 1999 Ford F350 Super Duty 4x4
  Our contact at Curt Manufacturing said that it sounds like you have a blocker beam on your 99 F350 Super Duty 4x4. A blocker beam is a 3 inch by 1 inch steel bar that mounts underneath the frame on the front of the vehicle and could be the reason your hitch will not mount correctly. In that case you would need a Curt Front Hitch for the 1999 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty part # C31014. However, if your truck is a cab and chassis model this hitch will not work either.

• Front Hitch that Fits 2004 Ford F-350
  I have a solution but the EcoHitch that you referenced does not fit your 2004 Ford F-350 as it fits newer Ford trucks and not yours. Instead the Curt hitch part # 31114 would be the option that I would recommend. It installs easily and has great weight capacities.

• How to Pick out a Front Mount Hitch for a 1999 Ford F350
  The difference between the Curt Hitch # C31014 and Curt Hitch # 31114 is that the # C31014 is designed for vehicles with blocker beams and the # 31114 is designed for vehicles without the blocker beam. You will want to look under the front end of your 1999 Ford F350 to see if you have a blocker beam and order the correct front hitch for your vehicle. If you get under the front of your vehicle and see an L-shaped bracket attached to a beam that runs from one frame rail to the other you...

• Front-Mount Hitch For Winch On 2001 Ford F-250 Truck With Blocker Beam
  I spoke with my contact at Curt and asked about your 2001 Ford F-250 truck. They told me that the reason for the difference in fit is due to the blocker beam that is installed on the truck. You actually purchased the correct front mounted hitch, part # C31014, if your truck has the front bumper bar. They told me that due to the bar, the hitch will be mounted in a different manner and the receiver will be below the bumper, not through the middle of the bumper like part # 31114.

• Front Hitch for 2003 Ford Excursion With Blocker Beam
  The instructions for both of the front-mounted hitches that are a fit for your 2003 Ford Excursion, the Draw-Tite # 65022 and Curt # 31114 reference the blocker beam, saying you'll need to remove and then reinstall it when putting on either hitch. This means, of course, that these hitches are not direct replacements for the blocker beam but either could still be installed.

  It isn't ideal to have to remove the factory fog lights to install the front hitch part # 31114 that you referenced, but since their location is the best place for mounting this hitch there unfortunately isn't a better solution. I attached an install video for this for you to check out as well.
